If you're ready to take your Austin CPA Exam preparation to the next level, Varsity Tutors offers connections to two great services to help you feel more prepared on test day. First, we provide a comprehensive Austin CPA Exam prep course that covers everything you need to know on the test. Alternatively, we can match you with a private Austin CPA Exam tutor who can provide individualized attention as you work toward your academic goals.
The Unified Certified Public Accountant Examination (or CPA) is a series of four standardized tests required to earn licensure as a CPA throughout the United States. You may take the four exams (Auditing & Attestation, Financial Accounting & Reporting, Regulation, and Business Environment & Concepts) in any order, but need to pass them all within an 18-month period in order to fulfill your standardized testing requirement. If you're feeling overwhelmed, let the experts help you out and reach out to us today.
What concepts can I go over during Austin CPA Exam prep?
Since the CPA Exam is actually four different tests, the content you review depends on which test you're taking next. For instance, a student preparing for Financial Accounting & Reporting might review how to keep financial documents secure, while someone studying for the Regulations test might review business law. Your instructor will be an expert in all CPA topics, allowing you to receive prompt answers no matter what questions you have.
You can also take practice exams during your prep time so that you know what content and formatting to expect on test day. Each test lasts four hours and consists of 62-76 multiple-choice items and task-based simulations that measure a test-taker's ability to apply academic learning to real-world scenarios. The Business Environment & Concepts test also has three written assignments that evaluate your ability to communicate in a professional manner. Your practice exams can reveal your academic strengths and any areas of opportunity for improvement, letting you know what you should concentrate on moving forward.
What advantages does each of the Austin CPA Exam prep options available to me provide?
As noted above, we can enroll you in an Austin CPA Exam prep class or refer you to a private instructor. If you opt to take a class, you'll meet with a group of dedicated students and a knowledgeable teacher on our proprietary Live Learning Platform. Every instructor undergoes a thorough vetting process, so you can trust all of the information presented to you.
Our platform also allows you to see and hear your classmates, allowing you to study in a structured, collaborative environment that could prove beneficial for you. If you're having a hard time remembering the tax code, one of your fellow students might know a mnemonic device that can help you out. Similarly, you can explain information technology to a classmate who's struggling with it to reinforce your own knowledge of the subject. Studying in a group also gives you value for your money, as you can split the bill multiple ways.
If you would rather receive individualized attention, we can match you with a private instructor willing to work online or in-person. If you study online, you'll take advantage of our Live Learning Platform's powerful features such as video chat functionality to receive a face-to-face tutoring experience anywhere with a stable internet connection. If you don't want to commute to a physical study session, you no longer have to. However, if you would rather study the old-fashioned way, your instructor can meet you at home, Saint Edward's University library, or even the cafeteria at the University of Texas - Austin.
No matter how you meet, a private instructor can design study sessions around your preferred learning style. If you're a visual student, your instructor can provide infographics to make it easier for you to picture key concepts. If you're more of an auditory learner, your instructor might instead adopt a discussion format with plenty of vocal emphasis on the most important points to help them stick in your mind. Likewise, a kinesthetic learner who studies best by doing might enjoy interactive activities for a more hands-on experience. You can also study at your own pace, whether that means moving more quickly to keep sessions engaging or slowing things down to develop a more comprehensive understanding of CPA concepts.
